One week Post-OP - Drinking more than 1 oz per 15 minutes...

I am currently on the liquid diet phase of my Post-OP and I was told to only drink 1 oz per 15 minutes. 1 oz usually does not satisfy me so I have drinking 3-4 ounces per 15 minutes for an hour occasionally. Is this bad or it isn't a big deal?

It's GREAT! You are healing better than most.

As long as you're not CHUGGING 3 or 4 ounces at a time, you should be fine. When do you get to progress to the next stage?

You know, you could always call you doc's office and ask if you can go to the next stage early. I was averaging 5 or 6 days per stage. But DO NOT do it without your doc's go-ahead.

It feels good that I lost 26 pounds in 6 days although I am sure that is very rare - I am used to eating Fast Food every day so I am sure my body is all confused right now lol
